Somatic Sensing is a synthesis of Body-Based Psychotherapy & Self Study Methods.
Juliette is a Certified Hakomi Therapist (CHT). Hakomi is a body-based psychotherapy which is rooted in Mindfulness and Self Study.
We unify body and mind in a process of self-discovery by coming into a relationship with the body in a mindful, curious, and empathic way to explore what information the body holds for us.
Our emotional world is a rich source of vital information, holding messages for us which can contribute to a greater sense of well-being. We all have organising principles - how we manage our world and our beliefs about ourselves and others. In Somatic Sensing, we bring these often unconscious beliefs into awareness to be studied— to see if they still serve us or if they are limiting us.
By following your body signals, especially your non-verbal expressions such as tensions and habits, I help bring unconscious patterns into your awareness to liberate you from their limitations and associated painful emotions.
As Moshé Feldenkrais says:
“ You can’t do what you want until you know what you are doing”
Much of our belief system is formed in our early years, influenced by family systems, societal conditioning, peer pressure, life events, and other factors. These beliefs are often limited and are associated with painful memories and hurts. These hurts, fears, and limitations continue to dictate our life circumstances, mostly outside of our awareness. We often come to therapy when life becomes a struggle. The self-study approach is as much a practice of mindfulness and self-care as it is a therapy. Somatic Sensing sessions allow us the space to access our own capacity for wholeness - the body is very wise and will move towards healing if we provide space.
Self-study, in the presence of a loving, safe, and empathetic guide, can help us to help ourselves by accessing our wisdom and connection to a deeper sense of self.
We can thrive, not just survive.
I also offer group therapy sessions alongside Laura Starnier who is trained in Psychosynthesis.

Client Reviews
I’m so pleased to have found Juliette. At a time of transition in my life our sessions are helping me to reflect upon what feels important in my next chapter. By making conscious and challenging limiting beliefs I feel supported in moving forwards in my chosen direction with increased confidence and self-compassion. Thank you Juliette.

Working with Juliette using hakomi has been transformative for me - I feel so much more connected to what I want and need, and to what I'm feeling and it has helped me notice feelings without judgment. The work we've done has had a powerful impact on my life - I feel as though someone has given me a key to something I didn't know I could access. It's a real gift.-Amy Crockett
My sessions with Juliette have been the transformative experiences I have been longing for. Juliette is an exceptionally compassionate, intuitive and empathetic therapist whose presence immediately creates a sense of safety, trust and acceptance.
Through her gentle Hakomi approach, she has helped me connect with parts of myself that I had carried for many years without fully understanding. With patience, kindness and deep respect, she has guided me to listen to the wisdom of my body and to explore emotions, memories and beliefs that were often hidden beneath the surface.
What makes Juliette so special is her ability to hold a space of loving presence and curiosity. There is never any pressure, judgement or expectation. Instead, she creates the conditions for healing to unfold naturally, allowing insights to arise in their own time. Some of the most profound shifts I have experienced have come not from analysing my problems, but from our little experiments, gently discovering what my body and deeper self have been trying to communicate all along.
Working with Juliette has helped me develop greater self-compassion, self-awareness and trust in myself. The experience has felt less like therapy and more like coming home to parts of myself that had been waiting to be acknowledged and embraced.
I am deeply grateful for her wisdom and skill, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a truly transformative therapeutic experience.
- Christina Smith
Juliette is an exceptional therapist who lives and breathes her work. I have been having ad hoc sessions with Juliette, and the way she shares Hakomi is within such a safe, sacred, and potent space.
The presence she holds allows for the most vulnerable aspects of myself, that I have been unable to access individually — to be witnessed and loved. Each session is deeply unique, and Juliette has a gift for being able to listen to exactly what you need, and ask the most potent questions or affirmtations, to empower your self discovery into understanding what you need yourself.
The sessions themselves have been a profound balance between inner child work, body somatic therapy, and psychotherapy. Upon Juliette’s guidance, I was able to travel deep into my inner landscape of emotions and timelines, more than I have before.
I look forward to re-booking my next session.
I highly recommend Somatic Sensing for all ages.
-Alice Summer
I have seen Juliette for several sessions of Hakomi the wonderful modality of body based somatic psychotherapy. As a growing practitioner myself I am very sensitive to who I go to for my own holding of space & with whom to do my own therapeutic work with. Juliette provides just the right mixture of empathy, trust, warmth and skill in being totally present with you. Juliette is able to track and guide you to notice those subconscious somatic cues we all have that can lead to release, breakthrough and transformation when held and seen. I highly recommend Hakomi with Juliette.-Kelly Cooper
